Warning, don't buy Mares dive computers.
As a dive instructor living in the Tropics and as most professionals understand that the dive computer is one of our number 1 tools, I had bought a Mares Nemo some 5 years ago logging around 300+ dives as it wasn't used all the time, I have had 2 battery replacements in that time, even though the black dots on the computer fell off within months I still found it very satisfactory ($1,200 Aud) until the seal on the button leaked causing the computer to fail, I had it looked at by a reputable dealer in Australia and he informed me that it dead and out of warranty, Mares would have a look at it and that is it if I wished to send it to Italy ($ 60.00 Aud registered post) from where I live. Not the end of the story, my wife was given a brand new Mares sport from a reputable dive company, for work done over the years so after some time instead of using her SCUBA PRO EXTENDER she chose the Mares, first dive it flooded ( $700.Aud) down the drain by just adding a little water HO HO, I do have a Nemo wide just waiting for it to flood as well so I take my trusty watch with me on every dive just waiting for the time it fails with a student. yes I understand the warranty limitations but really guys it is not good enough we pay handsomely for these products.
